Answer» Solution :(i) Herbivores have ionger SMALLINTESTINE so as to facilitatedigestion of cellulose. (ii)Mucus is secretedalongwith HCI so as to protect theinner liningof stomach from excoriation. (iii)Incomplete C-shaped RINGS of cartilagepresentin TRACHEA ensures that the air PASSAGE doesnot collapsewhenthere is no airin it. (iv)Lungs alwayscontain a residual volumeof air to provide sufficient `O_(2)`to be absorbed and`CO_(2)`to be RELEASED. |
